Orlando Magic’s Dwight Howard, recently won a $500,000 judgment against his baby mama, ‘Basketball Wives’ star Royce Reed, for violating a domestic court order against her. But Reed has yet to pay the judgment, so Howard took her to court again — this time in California.

According to TMZ.com, Howard, 25, sued Reed, 29, in a Florida court because she violated a court order, prohibiting her from talking about him in the press.

Reed is in arrears for $551,606.74, including interest. Howard, a narcissist who has never won a NBA championship ring, wants his cash now, and, apparently, he doesn’t care that Reed is the mother of his soon to be 4-year-old son, Braylon.

Howard, who is something of a religious freak, uses his high-profile as a NBA star and his Christian faith to “raise the name of God within the league and throughout the world”

When he is home in Atlanta, Howard attends the Fellowship of Faith Church in East Point, Georgia.

Dwight is an arse! #theend

He is lame ass at that!!
He is acting like a straight punk. I mean really… why would you take money from a female that has your child FULL TIME, and pratically raising him by herself. You want to take money from her??? You should be paying her more for doing your job while you out there continuing to make kids and choping down groupies.

I can’t stand Dwight Howard ugly azz 😦 , I don’t know what Royce did to this negro but he hates her azz. Why would you try to sue somebody that your paying child support to? meaning that your income is more than hers. He’s one stupid azz.

all she gotta do is stop talking about him to the press. seems simple to me.

I understand you gotta teach some people by going in their pockets….but why would he take money out of his own kids’ mouth?!?!?? Just saying…

I understand where he is going with this, but the point he is trying to actually get money from her is sick,…He is taking money from the child not Royce. And what makes him think she really has 500k, he’s acting like a child and needs to grow up, that’s why the Magic is not going to advance in the playoff’s. Karma is a mf Dwight.

And for those that don’t know, in the agreement that Royce signed, Dwight gave her $500,000 and a house in additon to the $10,000+ child support payments. So all she had to do was keep his name out her mouth.

@ Bird, Royce wasn’t gonna stay silent for free, so Dwight had to give her an incentive. That’s why he sued for the $500,000 he gave her.

Ahhhh!!! Well I don’t want to jump to too many conclusions, but that explains a lot. Why even do the show if dude paid you off? If she wasn’t on the show no one would care about her at all and then if she posted pics of her son the press wouldn’t even be interested in her.

If he’s so holy and religious and all about raising the name of the Lord in the league, then what in the world was he doing boinking a cheerleader (which is frowned upon in the league) before marriage and w/o a condom :wait:

It is said that two people who were once in love act this way. Even Kim Porter can talk about Diddy, and we ALL know he got a graveyard in his closet. I hope he and her can come to a resolution so Braylon won’t have to suffer.

@Omar
Men need to attack these women on the same terms that they attack us under. This means, don’t hit her back, call the police to establish her behavior. Take her to court to get your justice like they do, don’t be bitter and badmouth her. Foolish pride and that notion of what a “REAL MAN” would do just makes sure you’re on the losing end if it comes to it…………

Anthony, i feel you. Im not w my kids mother, but I’m not gonna take something away from her bc in the scheme of things it takes away from my kids. A friend of mine told me i was dumb for continuing to pay my bm’s mortgage, but that shit aint for her thats for my daughter. When Dwight matures more he will stop doing petty bitch shit!

We can’t base if Royce said anything about Dwight on Basketball hoes, because that only shows a friction of their life.

Who knows if she was running her mouth to magazines, interviews, public events, during seperation, etc. (People talk) She knew about the gag order before he sued her, and I’m assuming she decided to still speak about him afterwards thinking nothing would come of it.

Reese had an agreement, and she needs to pay up. She should have kept his name out her mouth, THATS TOO EASY. These are the consequences you pay when you think you are the shit and think you can do whatever you want. Dwight is a great basketball player and would be kept out of the media if it wasn’t for her.

Here’s the reality – HE PROBABLY HATES HER which is strong brew for all kinds of crazy behavior like this. That second lawsuit was designed to teach her a lesson about running her mouth and let her know that she may be his baby’s moma, but she is no longer his lady and he owes her NOTHING! He’s probably setting her up to try to obtain custody at some point down the road. Where was her lawyers? Honestly, I have no sympathy for none of them – they’re young and foolish. I pray one day they get a damn clue!

If by “violating the agreement” he means that picture she posted of her son on Twitter than Howard in being UBER petty. That story rubbed me the wrong way when it first broke. While I understand he may not have been comfortable with the pics of Royce in the background, the fact of the matter is that it’s her son too and NOTHING about that picture on Twitter suggested that he was in any type of danger. He kills me with this “holier than thou” role that he tries to keep up. I can gurantee that he isn’t always the model citizen he was raised to be. He gets a big WHATEVS in my book. AND I HOPE THE HAWKS KEEP WHOOPING ON THAT TAZZ (especially after those dirty stunts he likes to pull on the court!!)

This is ridiculous….both of them need to get it together. He needs to be careful though…she kind of holds the power with that child and she seems petty enough to use him (the child) against the father.

Pretty soon Dwight will have time to think about what he’s doing off court, the Hawks are up 3-1 in the playoffs.

anywho, dwight was the first player to silence a babymama when he heard she was going on the show. he didn’t want his son nor anything about him said by royce on the show. her whole purpose for being on the show is being dwight howard’s bm so it went without saying people wanted the scoop on that. he wanted to keep that private. i think fellow players have since followed suit with the most recent being chris bosh.

she has to make a living somehow so he broke her off some extra cash and assets and then she took to various and sundry blogs talking cash shyt about him under a fake name and hasn’t stopped. she twits a lot of pics of braylon but it’s just a couple of them that he supposedly had a problem with (such as one in her bedroom). i don’t think the pics were a problem though.

But what has Royce said about Dwight on the VH1 show, magazines, etc? This is still the question that no one can specifically answer.
*********************************

My guess is he doesn’t want her on the show period and really he paid a pretty penny to control her. She makes 7k per episode. Its not worth the trouble. She has a college degree. She could make more money than the show pays her just getting a job. Then she could share pics of her son with her FB friends with no problem.

I’ve been thinking that now that there are so many celeb basketball wives they could do a real show that isn’t so triflin which is the aspect of it that I think the guys may not like. I’d watch Monica, Nessa, Khloe, Gabby, Lala and Tamia live off their men’s millions even if they aren’t clawing each other’s eyes out. Debbie Allen could be the matriarch of the crew

no active ball player will agree to this, except matt barnes. and you see where that got him. lamar is an exception cause the kardashians are cash cows and keep their shyt tight. you don’t see khloe or kim w/ BM drama or trashing their men in the press, even when said men do them dirty.

living in the lap of luxury only to not talk about your baby father? seems like a simple contract to me and she broke it. pretty cut and dry if she wanted to talk about him she could have not signed it

exactly. this arrangement obviously extends beyond the show but why did she agree in the first place. i gotta believe there are countless BM agreements similar to this all over the country.

She should’ve kept her mouth shut but instead she defied the judge & got financially bitch slapped. Is he right for going after the judgment I would think as long as she’s keeping her trap shut there’s no need to try & get blood from a stone. You know that 500k he gave her is long gone.

Dwight Howard took Royce to court in Florida last year. This is when he was awarded the 500K judgement. However, Royce never paid him. So, he recently took her to court in California. An agreement is an agreement. She needs to either pay up or shut up. Personally, I would have taken my mansion and moved on to the next one… Dwight who?

Howard is a dirty player. He be throwing the elbows on the sly every night like it’s nothing and tries to play innocent when he gets caught like he was just turning around and happen to hit the other player. Yeah ok.

OH and the turns are not limited to the one finger……don’t forget about the “open palm” turn.

I cannot understand for the life of me how Royce is on the show like she has it all together and shit and is always telling somebody go to the gym or pop something to keep their man happy and she is just as single and desperate as all them other heffers on there.

I think this all stems from an incident on Twitter last year, or the year before. He wanted x amount of dollars for everytime she mentioned his name. He even wanted to forbid her from showing pictures of her baby online. I know she tweeted a pic of Braylon, and another blogger tweeted to her she was going to get in trouble. Messy, messy. Dwight just seems like a bitter little girl crying over a breakup.

I wish somebody would tell me when and when i can’t post pictures of my own child that I’m taking care of. I can understand you want me to leave your name out my mouth, but to tell me I can’t show off my son’s pics when I want to is ridiculous.

I wish a muthafukker I lay down with and have a child with TELL me I cant even say his name in public…It shows Dwight has NO respect for Royce…cause to me NO real man would say that…I can see it if she was defaming or slandering his name….He hiding some shit…thats the only reason I can think of that would make him act like sort of a bitch….

I despise bitch ass men….like they all should be shot!
*********************************************
Don’t shoot me…BUT, I do not allow anyone to put mine up on the web (fb,twitter,myspace, nothing) and I have voiced this. So, I would have a BIG issue if someone (even the dad) put my child’s picture up ONLY because I SAID that I don’t want it up…

Now, I don’t have their money, but I still don’t want folks seeing all that we do or what we have in the home… from pics on the web

A good ole Christain boy that got seduced by the whore cheerleader….give me a break….If she got pregnant the first time they did it then maybe….but more than likely she was bussing down after the game and got knocked up…he was “embarrassed” cause she doesnt fit his wholesome image…..so now he disses her publicly and treats her like dirt in front of his son…. Jesus wouldnt sue his baby mama…..

you know he got some other broad pregnant too? i think it was like last year or so..

I’m too done with him…..
He need to quit hiding under the Lord and be who he is…
a bishassnigga!

They signed a contract so obviously she said something or did something and the judge sided with him… She aint gotta pay it in 1 lump sum she can make payments but the point is she hasnt paid a dime…Let that have been him with his child support you mean to tell me she wouldn’t have been at his neck in court ???

first off Dwight is petty and foolish he needs to leave her alone and set an example for his son… the ONLY thing Royce did was tweeted out a pic of THIER son on her Twitter page, she NEVER talked about him on the show and why would she? she was a dating another dude at the time anyway.

the ONLY thing Royce did was tweeted out a pic of THIER son on her Twitter page,
___________________________________________
Well then somehow she broke the contract by doing that ..So why is there even an argument ??? If this is what she signed and said she wouldnt do but did.

she has every right to tweet out a pic of HER son hell he came out of HER TWAT ..so you think its a good thing? you are a fool when you have a kid you have to act like an adult he wants to leave her broke while she has his child ..that says alot about his character ..for someone who makes his type of money to stoop down to this ghetto drama is foolish..

Well if you think its ok and lawful to break a contract signed by both parties involved then thats you …But the law says she cant and thats what im going off of… If she knew she was gonna tweet his picture and facebook his picture then she should have NOT SIGNED THE CONTRACT but she did so she has to PAY.

BOTH HAD THE BABY BY THE WRONG PERSON AND HE’S MAKING HER LIFE A LIVING HELL, SHE IS NOT PAID LIKE THAT AND FOR HIM TO BE ASKING FOR THAT KIND OF MONEY IS STR8 FOUL!
IT’S LIKE HE’S TRYING TO CONTROL HER LIFE!!

I think he’s doing it to be spiteful. It’s not like she’s parading around saying “Dwight Howard ain’t shit” “Dwight’s just a sperm donor” etc etc.

She posted a picture of their son on twitter. Not for publicity, but that’s just what mothers do. But I guess she has to pay up, if the contract denies her portraying anything about their past relationship.

Royce is the cheap one on BBWives. They would always tease Royce because she didn’’t wear the designer clothes and look how they look. Dwight is bitter and trying to break her down. dwight is a b.i.t.c.h
